Nicolas Winding Refn is one of the most exciting and visual filmmakers around and he is set to return to the director's chair this summer with his latest film The Neon Demon.

Refn has brought us movies such as Valhalla Rising, Bronson, and Drive in recent years and The Neon Demon is his first feature since Only God Forgives back in 2013.

As well as being in the director's chair for the new film, Refn has teamed up with Mary Laws and Polly Stenham to pen the screenplay.

The movie sees Refn team up with Elle Fanning for the first time and the young actress takes centre stage in the first teaser trailer. Take a look:

Refn has brought together another fantastic cast as Jena Malone, Abbey Lee, Bella Heathcote, Keanu Reeves, and Christina Hendricks will all star alongside Fanning.

When aspiring model Jesse moves to Los Angeles, her youth and vitality are devoured by a group of beauty-obsessed women who will use any means necessary to get what she has.

This first teaser trailer comes hot on the heels of the news that The Neon Demon is set to play in competition at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

No director creates movies quite like Refn and I am always excited to see what he delivers next. While this may only a teaser trailer, The Neon Demon looks set to be another visual treat from the filmmaker.

The Neon Demon is released this summer.
